That's 100 more participants in a little over a month. We're still over 10,000 participants short of our goal however. If you are on the fence,
sign up or
let us know what's holding you back. Similarly, if you know of someone who might be interested in the FSP, let them know about us. Remember, becoming a participant doesn't mean you'll move immediately, but that you'll move within 5 years of us achieving 20,000 participants. Alternatively, if you support the FSP but can't commit to moving, please at least
join as a friend.
